New Materials and Suggestions for
Home Dress-Making.
The new materials that come un
der the head of summer fabrics are
being shown at all the fashionable
shops, as has become the style In re
cent years. So accustomed have wo
men become to selecting such goods
In January that the seeming unseason
ableness awakens no comment. The
people who lead in modes have form
ed the habit of going South In winter
with as much regularity as they go
to Newport or Bar Harbor In summer
and not only do the new "wash goods”
make their bow to the public with the
beginning of the year but the gowns
intended for Southern wear from the
best makers are shown on all sides. 1
These Set the Styles
for the coming seasons and the clevet ,
So becoming a.id durable, and give such
an air of elegance and distinction
when thrown back at theatre, concert,
or other resorts, that no article of
woman’s drees Is more satisfactory as
an Investment.
Our coldest weather coming now
as usual after the 1st of January,
renders the question of furs nfore in
teresting even than earlier In the sea
son. From custom chiefly, however,
reductions begin and Intelligent buy
ers hasten to welcome C. C. Shayne’s
Inaugural. For two or three seasons
past, a special discount has been al
lowed on each kind of fur. The pres
tige of flue fur Is equal to that of
diamonds, especially< if purchased
from a dealer whose name Is a guar
antee.
Thanks are due the McCall Co.,
makers and designers of fashion for
handsome Illustration shown here.
ft!
woman who likes to be up to date In
her dressing, buys her materials early
while the prettiest colorings and de
signs are obtainable and with her
own^sklllful fingers or the help of
some bright little dressmaker fashions
pretty frocks that do duty first at in
formal dinners and small dances,
and later as an important part of her
summer outfit to insure her readiness
when the warm days come as they
are apt to do quite suddenly late In
May.
Perhaps the Prettiest
of all the new 1906 dress goods are
the Banzai. These are delicate yet
durable mixtures of silk and cotton,
very glossly and supple. They come
in all the fashionable color tones and
in both plain goods and figured de
signs. The name Banzai Is stamped
in Japanese characters on the blue
wrapper of the goods though it may
be suspected that the pretty stuff
never saw Japan, but Is the clever
production of American looms. For
all that no one cares however, the
main thing Is that for 50 cts. a yard
you can buy the pretty silky Banzai
and make all sorts of dainty dressos,
waists and negligees not only for
adults but for the younger fry, for
the material washeis perfectly, and
Is being used by all the up to date
dressmakers.
Furs and Fur-lined Coats.
Our great grandmothers wore "book-
muslln” In midwinter, and over them
wadded pelisses, their modish descen
dants wear as thin materials only
prettier In weave and long coats of
fur or cloth or silk with fur linings
which protect the wearer effectually
however low the temperature. These
handsome fur garments are besides
New Fads In Jewelry.
This season th^r.j has been a spe
cially large demand for all sorts of
bracelets. All the old styles have
b%en revived and the woman who has
access to the jewel box of some long
gone ancestress can array herself iu
almost any type of arm ornament
with the assurance of being In the
"tip of the mode” as these same
grand ancestors would have express
ed it. All sorts of gold weaving is
liked, and medallions with chains, ser
pents with eyes of diamonds, rubles
or emeralds, quaint East Indian de
signs in gold or various alloys and
colors with semi-precious stones sunk
In the design, and of course the re
gulation bands enriched with stones
or carvings.

Arrested for Bigamy.
8. E. Frazier, a well known employee
of the Southern Railway Company at
Spencer, was Monday morning arrest
ed upon the charge of bigamy, the
warrant for his arrest having been
sworn out by Mrs. Lizzie Wren, of
Charlotte. She alleges that, last No-
Vvjmber, Frazier wilfully and know
ingly married her daughter, Miss Fan
nie Lee Pace, while at the same time
he had a living wife. It is claimed by
Frazier that he had Instituted divorce
proceedings and that he thought he
had secured a divorce from his first
wife. The arrest was made by Chief
of Police J. R. Cruse, of Spencer, and
Deputy Sheriff Ross, of Charlotte, who
carried Frazier back to Charlotte

Actor’* Society Contributes.
The Actor's Society of America, ea
order to which Messrs. Davison and
Bennett, who were murdered by
George Hasty in Gaffney a few weeks
ago. belonged, has agreed to contribute
to the prosecution of George Hasty.
It is well enough for this society to
see vengence wrought upon the slayer
of their deceased brother, but we
don’t believe the courts of South Caro
lina are going to be so slack In this
case at to need aid from New York
to convict the murderer of one of ths
blackest crimes ever committed in
the State. We believe there are
enough honest jurors in Cherokee
county to vindicate the law and protect
the State from greater shame.—Dor

One Kind Word for Hasty.
Mr. Arthur Hasty, of Gaffney, S. C.,
was in town last weeK, visiting his
father, Mr. W. F. Hasty, who has the
svmpathy of this community in his
trouble In relation to tbe unfortunate
occurrence in which his son, George,
figured so disagreeably in Gaffney a
few weeks ago. The young man lived
here with his father until about a
year ago. and was considered a very
good boy. He had the reputation of
minding his own business, and was
of considerable help to his father. In
fact it was, as we are informed, to be
of greater assistance to the old man
that George went to Gaffney, where
he was working for two of his broth
ers. who run the Piedmont Inn, when
the lamentable affaflr took place, and
the young man had, on several occas
ions sent earnings to assist his fath
er. It must be quite clear to erven the
most ordinary intelligence that ^he
affair was put in the worst light as
regards young Hasty, by a press cor
respondent who flew off the handle to
create a sensation. We have no idea
who this corresnondent is, but it 1*
dollars to doughnuts that we are right.
No one can form a sound opinion on
the merits of thr> case until the plain,
ir-amished facts are given to the
jury, which wiT not be until some
time in February. Therefore suspend
judgment. In the meantime we sym
pathize with the stricken mother and
the father. The best New Year’s wish
we can make Is that their boy will
get a square deal. More cannot be de
manded. bnt he should expect no less.

Bigger Yields
A given number of acres fertilized with Farmers' Bone produce a
greater yield of cotton, than the same acreage with ordinary fertilizer.
Farmers' Bone does more than that. It makes it possible to reduce
the acreage and increase the yield. Try it this year. The man
who uses
Made With Fish
has twenty-one years of fertilizer experience back of him. Over
J 3,000 carloads of Rovster fertilizers were used on the crops of 1905.
